Description

A refreshing and bold salad combining sweet strawberries and watermelon with a spicy kick from jalapeño and chili-lime seasoning.


Ingredients

  • 4 cups cubed watermelon
  • 2 cups sliced strawberries
  • 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (seeds removed for less heat)
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, torn
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon chili-lime seasoning (such as Tajín)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, gently combine the cubed watermelon and sliced strawberries.
  2. Add the sliced jalapeño, torn mint leaves, and crumbled feta cheese (if using).
  3. Drizzle the lime juice over the mixture and sprinkle with chili-lime seasoning and salt.
  4. Toss gently to combine, being careful not to break the fruit.
  5. Let the salad sit for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld, then serve immediately.

Notes

You can customize the seasonings to taste. For extra heat, leave the seeds in the jalapeño.
